Modernism and New Spain: Britain, Cosmopolitan Europe, and the Literary History of the Transatlantic Avant-Garde
In Modernism and New Spain, Gayle Rogers reconstructs the intercultural connections between two key modernist movements—British and Spanish—that shaped literary and cultural landscapes across Ireland, North America, and South America. The book centers on transnational exchanges: the dialogue between T.S. Eliot’s Criterion and José Ortega y Gasset’s Revista de Occidente, the influence of James Joyce’s Ulysses on Spanish intellectuals, and the collaborative critique of Spanish fascism and British patriarchy in Virginia Woolf’s work, supported by Argentine dissident Victoria Ocampo. Rogers also explores anti-fascist poetic circles around Federico García Lorca.
Drawing on extensive archival sources, Rogers demonstrates how modernists forged reformist alliances to reimagine postwar Europe—not from traditional centers like London, Paris, or Berlin, but from the alternative space of Madrid.
